Biography
Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel was born on 3 January 1985 in M'saken, Sousse Governorate, Tunisia to a Sunni Muslim family. He moved to France in 2005 and worked as a delivery truck driver, and he engaged in petty crime such as theft and road rage in France, earning him a criminal record. However, he defied only common law, and French intelligence had not heard of him. Bouhlel was known to drink, hit his wife, eat pork, and do drugs, and he never went to a mosque or prayed; he was not a religious Muslim in any sense. Bouhlel would later be radicalized by the Islamic State, and he rented a box truck and purchased a handgun in July 2016. On 14 July 2016, he drove the box truck into a crowd of revelers at the Bastille Day fireworks in Nice, southern France, mowing down scores of people. He killed over 84 people and injured 202, and he was later shot dead in his truck in front of the Palace of the Mediterranean Hotel.
